TRUE WIND

1. Can be integrated into new or existing plants.

2. Correlates real conditions with design parameters, preventing damage.

3. Extends equipment lifespan and reduces maintenance costs.

4. Improves energy production by minimizing the effects of adverse wind.

Structural stability against wind is a key challenge in photovoltaic plants. Sunner presents TRUE WIND, a technology that uses data from the GAU (Galloping Avoidance Unit) to anticipate aeroelastic instabilities such as galloping, improving operation and alarm management.

  • The GAU is the physical device installed on the beam that detects and analyzes the torsional behavior of solar trackers.

  • It uses advanced filtering and real-time modal analysis to identify natural frequencies and key damping.

  • TRUE WIND quickly estimates the impulse response of each vibration mode with computationally efficient methods.

  • Main advantages:

  • Can be integrated into new or existing plants.

  • Correlates real conditions with design parameters, preventing damage.

  • Extends equipment lifespan and reduces maintenance costs.

  • Improves energy production by minimizing the effects of adverse wind.
  • Real-time estimation of frequency and damping using real wind allows for accurate detection of unstable operation in certain trackers.

  • Safety positioning periods can be significantly reduced compared to conventional wind speed alarms, allowing for faster and more specific responses.
